How to protect yourself.  A DUI can cause issues behind the wheel that could have been prevented. These types of accidents are typically more dangerous than those with cars. Due to the clumsy nature of DUIs, these types of accidents can become worse than in regular conditions. DUIs typically cause more damage than regular commercial vehicles and they usually carry additional cargo that can cause additional damage upon impact.
